Lots of Americana on this episode. But all over America - Chicago, SF, Down South and of course, New York City. Of particular interest is the American Music Club track that bring's up "The Stud's Well Drink Specials" The Stud was my DJ home in San Francisco and the track brings up a lot of old memories. I started listening to the Grandmaster Flash song again around the time of the 9/11 anniversary but thought I'd follow it up with a nod to the occupy movement. Keep your eyes on the prize kids!
